Dr. Yang Yike from Department of Chinese Language and Literature Wins Teaching Excellence Award  

 

The award-winning course 'Digital Technologies in Teaching' was developed as an elective for the education concentrations in Chinese, English, and history at Hong Kong Shue Yan University (SYU). The primary objective of this course is to introduce students to new technologies used in education and provide them with the opportunity to explore how to incorporate these technologies into their teaching practices. The course covers various areas such as learning management systems, extended reality (XR), geographic information systems (GIS), and 3D printing.

 

Led by Dr. Yang Yike, the course places a strong emphasis on training students to integrate digital technology into pedagogy effectively. Dr. Yang employs innovative teaching methods that encourage hands-on learning experiences for the students. One notable aspect of the course is that students are given the opportunity to create their own Open Educational Resources (OERs), allowing them to apply the knowledge and skills they have acquired throughout the course.
